    Lovely evening at the Grapevine Champagne and jazz bar. Very friendly efficient staff made us feel really welcome. Had the cheese platter with charcuterie add on and bottle of their house Champagne. Both delicious. Also, had lunch and coffee at their deli which was also lovely with great staff. Will definitely return the next time we go to Tenterden.

    Lovely place, and delicious inventive food. The chef is a great guy and they have good ambient music. We ate at lunchtime. If I had to pick a small downside- location wise, please bear in mind that the toilets are for the whole Courtyard so you will have to leave the restaurant for those. Otherwise top notch.
